The view was great, the food at the Private Club was good. The lobster and crab spaghetti was flavorful. Our waiter Issac was the best!

Really nice 360° viewing platform! The prices are quite high but its the tallest building in Seattle so the view is one of the best. Plus: you can see the space needle as a part of the skyline from here! Staff is really friendly and the interactive screens tell you more about the things you see.

Iconic building in Downtown Seattle. Currently own the title as the tallest building in the city. I frequent this place to eat lunch. I eat at Basil Box (Thai), Market place (American food by the weight), Hamburger and Barbeque place. Only a handful of food place are open during covid time.

People very friendly and easy to get around. Also great food in the food Court

Great views of Seattle all around, but a bit wanting in terms of selection of food options to choose from in the food court. They are doing a great job, all that they can do increase social distancing and sanitation measures during the Covid pandemic. This is the tallest building in Seattle - actually in the entire state of Washington I think. So dont forget to include this on your travel itinerary if youre ever in downtown. The views are spectacular!

Have you ever been to the 76th floor? Have you ever felt like a bird soaring high in the sky? This is what you experience here! I liked everything here - a long ride on the elevator, breathtaking views of Seattle and pleasant service!

Best building ever, most floors of any west of the Mississippi.

The Columbia Center is the tallest building in downtown Seattle and a must visit place when in downtown Seattle. The Sky View observatory is located on the top of the building and access to the observatory is via high speed elevators.It features a 3 story retail atrium and office space. On the 1st floor of the atrium are a variety of restaurants, including the ubiquitous Starbucks, serving all kinds of cuisine.

Went to Twice Burger for lunch. They have been open and serving all of us considered essential. Super nice sraff, and fresh food prepared to order. Thanks Twice Burger!

Cool place to go if u want to see unobstructed views of Mt Ranier and look down at the space needle. Cant beat the views but it cost over $60 for me and my 3 kids to take the elevator up. Awesome experience. Little bit of cheesy selling going on but u can expect that at tourist spots

Wow, this place is awesome! Way better than the space needle. Amazing views, and a quick informative elevator ride going up talking about the history of the cascades. I would recommend you go to this over the space need. It’s also cheaperPro tip - students are only $14 M-TH 10am-3pm!!

Many people come to Seattle to visit the space needle. However if you are after a great view, then I would recommend this tower as it is nearly double the height of the space needle. To ensure you get the full experience, I recommend that you budget yourself at least an hour to walk around the floor and fully absorb the view, and the structural magnificence of the tower. There are little tablets stationed around the floor that will give you some insight on towers that stand out on the skyline this is also a cute cafe on the floor. Next time I visit Seattle, this will surely be on my list of things to do.

What an amazing view. I used to go to the Starbucks on the 40th floor, it’s the highest you can go without paying for the tower but the tower is definitely worth the cost. Just make sure you go on a clear day, and get it as part of the city pass.

Great place. The staff were very knowledgeable and theres murals painted on the walls of the that let you know some history stuff about Seattle and the buildings in it. The bar staff in the observatory very nice and make great drinks. Delicious simple food! The View up there is very amazing especially the Sun is going down. You can see the mountains and you get a good view Rainier.

The have food and a bar. Great view of the city. Some interesting facts. Great place to bring out of town guests.

We debated between this place and space needle and we chose correctly. 360 views are amazing, go for morning sunrise or evening sunset for best shots.

My son loves going Columbia Center. Its pretty cool there.

Honestly, much better than the Spaceneedle at a much better price. The views and ambiance is relaxing and there is even a small cafe if you want a drink or snack.

A hugely high building in Seattle city. There is a sky view area where you can see the whole city with a 360 view and some interactive screens that helps location major areas and explains some facts about them. The price is not so expensive and you can take your time to contemplate the large areas. If you get a covered weather prefer to postpone in order to not miss any high mountain around.

Highest building in Seattle. You can go up to 73rd floor. From my point of view it is better than Space Needle because the building is much higher and also the entrance is cheaper (approx. 22USD). View is amazing, there is a bar so you can have a drink with spectacular view

Why go to the overpriced and dingy looking space needle? This has the best view in the city and is way more comfortable to spend the sunset for your viewing pleasure! Very well done, and Im told there is a new express elevator just for the observatory coming very soon!

I come here for lunch a few days a week. There has been a seating shortage ever since they added a dedicated elevator, store, and photo area for the observatory in the middle of the good court. The process have also been steadily rising at the restaurants because if increased in rent. This has decreased the dining experience significantly and driven out some of the best restaurants. Market fresh is good for salad, the BBQ place is good, and the Indian place if great, but many of the other restaurants are just too expensive for what you get.

The view was killer. Elevator ride was entertaining. Staff were extremely friendly too.

I love this place I had the Classic Burger its very juicy not dry. I dont really eat burgers but I would go back to this place.

If you have an hour to spare in Seattle, make some time to check out the observation deck here. The views of the downtown, the Sound and the mountains are amazing. For such a busy and lively city, the view from the deck makes everything seem so peaceful.

Got a great selection of food to choose from @ the food court, even during COVID-19 quarantine!

If you are from out of town - like me in fact I am from out of the country - dont miss out on this opportunity to get stunning views of all of Seattle. With good visibility it is possible to almost touch Mount Rainier. Bring at least two hours.

Great view from the 73 floor and moderate drink pricing. You can upgrade your ticket and come back when the sun goes down. Last entrance to the elevator is at 7:00pm.

This place is half the price of the space needle and double the height, so way better views. We were towering over the needle. It was beautiful. So much fun.

Ask about the happy hour, the observation deck tickets go from ~$20 to $5! This is a must see!

My fantastic son just took a year lease out on the 31st floor. Amazing views. Super expensive parking but a great food facility on lower levels.

The Starbucks on the 40th floor is free to get to and has great views if you don’t want to go all the way to the top. There is plenty of food options in the bottom (shout out to jimmy johns) if you want a nice coffee Monorail Espresso is lovely. Can connect to the Seattle Municipal Tower and Bank of America building through the tunnel under 5th.

Plenty of places to eat! Love going up to the Sky Lobby and lounging about in the Starbucks in the 40th floor. Great place to grab a bite to eat or to hang out.

Love the view from 73rd floor. Only thing that I didnt like was the photography thing. They asked too much price for them.

Very fun, beautiful views. Would come here instead of going to the Space Needle. You can see so many beautiful sights without spending a bunch on a ticket. Starbucks and restrooms also on the same floor as the viewing area! I just wish they had better seating. When you buy a ticket it last ALL DAY! You can buy a ticket and see the view during the daytime hours and then come back at night and see everything lit up beautifully!

It is everything you would expect from an office building. The observatory is closed.

Great view. But expansive 27$ for adult and 16$ for kids.

Very nice views of Seattle, especially at the sunset.

Very clean, courteous staff. Of course it has the best views in the area because it is the tallest. Would definitely recommend visiting even if you do not have a reason to do so.

The Columbia Center opened in the 80’s And is the tallest building currently in Seattle at 72 stories. Definitely recommend to beat the crowds and a better view than the Space Needle.

We can see the whole city and its the highest point. I loved the cheese and bacon sandwich. Outside the employees who are super friendly

Good views but we picked a poor day, very low clouds. Still we managed to get a very good idea of the layout of the city.

Gorgeous views, good customer service. Unfortunately they gave me someone elses to go box instead of my own. Other than that no complaints!

Views from the observatory were amazing. Probably cannot get a better view of present-day-Seattle from any other building close by. There is a cafe on top and restrooms as well. Loved how historical information was presented on the wall below the viewing windows and also available through a touch screen monitor. History of the different bridges, old buildings and the port were a delight to read. Good place for photos and to absorb the living beast that is Seattle.

This is the best place for the best view in Seattle if you ask me its really tall compared to all the others around.

Breathtaking sights from the observation level were a great way to start a day exploring the city. We may have even spotted a whale or some other large sea creature in the Puget Sound from our perch atop the citys tallest stricture. A must see for any out of town visitor.

Beautiful view of the city. Much cheaper and less crowded than the Space Needle.

Beautiful view from up there!

My wifes work had its Christmas party here. Great views and the food was delicious. Would definitely recommend this as a top notch venue for hosting events.

The experience starts on the 1st floor , off 4th Ave.Tickets a bit pricey. But thankful for Bogo deal.The view is breathtaking.Spent 2 hrs on 73rd observation floor, reading the history and walking around enjoying the 360 degree view. Also enjoying a glass of wine from cafe.The cafe was out of multiple wines and although the bartender / ? Was helpful with suggestions we couldnt help but be a little taken back by their attire.If your a business and you go the extent to purchase or lease a space that is hands down one of a kind... I would expect one might not forget any detail , such as attire for employees.Maybe the entire shift had a washer/dryer malfunction or they had to fill in for someone on the spot. But this truely helps to make the entire experience and money spent to watch the sunset while having a glass of wine or or what have you and wanting to come back.One side of the observation deck has games for kids so they can play while parents appreciate the view .Unfortunately at the time we went .. mind you was late at night, there were many kids as well as obnoxious of age drinkers that had a few to many before getting there.To bring to light.One of these games that some New Age Urban hippie came up with was an oversized wooden Connect Four... are u freaking kidding me! They drop in to the slot with an annoying Cheap wood Thwack sound... ya not enjoyable for those trying to appreciate the surrounding beauty. Other board and puzzle games that were slightly less annoying were littering the North side of the Observatory as well.It was not well thought out! But I suppose its the thought that counts right!I have an idea.. leave the kids at a , should be daycare at the bottom because Im sure they dont care or appreciate the money that was spent to look out the window !And as far as annoying drunk ppl, I have not figured out a way to ignore them without thinking of how stupid they look and sound!To some up the experienceCircus mixed with first class viewIll be back again

So much better then the space needle! They have board games yiu can play with and a small bar for drinks.

Cheaper than the space needle, and a much better view! No vegan options to eat, but thats the norm... good drinks, spent an hour up there, easily. 73 stories up

Wow! $20 to be 73 floors above Seattle. Great deal! Be sure to time it about an hour and a half before close so you can catch the sunset and the lights of the city coming up. Its a little tricky to get photos without reflections from the windows. A shroud or hood might help to avoid this from happening.

Nice views of the city from the observatory on the top floor..

Did you know this place is loaded with food options? No? Well now you do! Pretty cool. Jacks BBQ is the spot I hit up the most in there. Probably one of the better bbq places in seattle.

Stopped in to go to the Starbucks on the 40th floor. Pretty good view although a little obstructed (see photos).

Great views and friendly people

Great view of the city. Ive heard its better than Space needle.. (Needless to say, cos its taller)

My favourite sport to watch Seattle from above. Its even more impressive than from the SPace Needle. I am glad I found this.

Opens bright and early in the morning (6:00 am if I remember correctly). Has public restrooms and places to sit and charge your phone/laptop/etc.Theres a bus stop right outside the door, so its a great place to kill time while you wait, especially during the winter months.

I have been in and out of this building since 1993 and love the use of the space and constant upgrades. Nothing beats the nightime views and natural lighting that comes in.

Renovation was really successful. So many nice, comfortable places to sit. Many good restaurants.

Wow place for travelers and locals also! Great views from Starbucks on 40th floor and even better view from Sky Observatory! A lot of info on the walls: history, numbers, dates and interesting facts. Very educational for everyone! Recommend!

I visited to observation deck. Much better than the Space needle

Wedding on the 75th and 76th floorCorine is AMAZING and everyone was in awe of the views and elegant decor

Really nice building! There’s a ton of food options and even a workout center in the plaza area! Went to the Starbucks on the 40th floor.

Pretty good food. Great variety. Prices at some places pretty high. Have to look around.

Tallest in Seattle and great views. Doesnt need to be even all that clear to see alot. Mountains in the distant youll need a clear day though. Been up a couple of times since a friend works in building. I wouldnt pay the $20 or whatever it is to go up though.

The tallest building in Seattle - with a Starbucks on the 40th floor and an observation deck on the 73rd floor~! A great place to eat, shop, or get coffee rain or shine (with the first 3 floors of mostly eateries). Going up to the 73rd floor requires you buy a ticket, but definitely worth it - especially on a clear day~!

Amazing views. Way better than space needle

Probably the best panoramic view of Seattle from this skyscraper. You can also grab a beer there. They have tables near the window

I went there in a Sunday. The ticket office was empty, so I need to use the kiosks to buy ticket. It is not an issue but the kiosk did not print the ticket. Luckily, I emailed the receipt and it worked. All other stores in the building was also closed. The view for the 73rd floor is amazing. There is a nice cafe up there, wifi and restroom. Friendly staff. They take photos of you and add nice background on them but they are a bit overpriced (in my opinion)

This is one of the most beautiful buildings in town. Hands down. Inside and out

Very pricey for what it is. The pictures will end up costing you a lot more. 20 dollars each to be exact. Service was great.

Love working at this building!

Really cool building, but I wish you didn’t have to pay to go up to the top. But definitely, the view of Seattle is worth it.

It is just a place to be at. The view is spectacular and I felt like I was on top of the world!!

View us almost twice the height of the Space Needle for about the same price. On a clear day (Winter) you can see Mt.Saint Helens to the Canadian border.

Employees wonderful in helping me find the place I was looking for and in giving me directions for my next stop. So considerate!

Good selection, youre not going to be blown away by anything...mostly mediocre stuff. I like the burrito at Fiesta Fiesta and Jacks BBQ was good too. Sometimes I get the Indian food. Didnt go to the observatory but maybe its cool.

The food options are great, loads of options! It has a wonderful atmosphere, so you can eat, relax, and enjoy yourself!!

Go here instead of the Space Needle. This building is taller. Views are better. Still, a bit pricey to get to obversation deck.

The height of the building makes it stand out. Lots of views from the top of the observation area. Overall loved seeing it.

Great place to be racially profiled and socially profiled by a loser security* team. If youre not white and dressed in a suit and tie you will see what Im talking about! Enjoy!

Beautiful view of Seattle from the top.

The observatory was spectacular...Just that the late shift didnt seem to happy but the elevator conductor was awesome. Give him a raise....

Awesome view, you can see seattle

Great place to see the sunset, enjoy drinks with friends and great a great history lesson about Seattle and the Columbia building.

Super cool building to visit if you never have. There is also an observation deck accessible to the public

This is a have to see even as youre in Seattle. I came in the day gone by to look the sundown and get a observe the city from above. Great spot. It wasnt too crowded either which changed into so first-class.

Views for the win! I only wish it wasn’t as expensive as it is.

Super cool. Amazing view.

Best views of Seattle without the novelty price of the shorter, much more touristy tower on the other side of downtown. Easy access and friendly, knowledgeable staff who all helped point out some unique features of the skyline. Crystal clear, sunny skies proved to be a bonus for easily spotting Mt Rainier and Mt Baker. Fun place to take the family and spend some time enjoying the scenery around Seattles skyline.

Cool place to view the city - but does lack outside section. The food hall on ground does have great selection - so nice bonus. Havent tried the space needle, so hard to compare.

The Observation Floor was a great place to bring visitors to. The barmaid was very accommodating and friendly. We would definitely visit again.

Visited a friend in the offices above. Amazing view and great food!

The Tower Club has fantastic views from the 75th floor k of the Columbia Tower. Tasty beers, too!

Gorgeous sea view from high floors. Confusing building layout with convoluted escalator paths.

Gorgeous view, specially in the evening time, when all lights on. The place was clean, well organized and had enough information to learn about the city and surroundings.

Amazing view. Still takes 30 minutes to get water. 3rd general manager, still takes 30 minutes to get water - I think bad waiters are a ClubCorp problem. Good food, if you can get it. Good coffee and snacks...oops they ran out. Annoying members, tiresome guests and new people, too chaotic for a co-working space. This is the place to be seen if you dont actually do any real work.
